Knowledge
Students know:
- Measurable attributes of objects, specifically perimeter.
- Strategies for modeling measurement problems involving perimeter.
- Strategies for representing and computing perimeter.
Skills
The Students are able to:
- Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving perimeters of polygons.
- Find the perimeter of a figure given the side lengths.
- Find an unknown side length of a polygon given the perimeter and one missing side length.
Understanding
Students understand that:
- Perimeter is measured in length units and is the distance around a two-dimensional figure.
- If all the sides of a polygon are equal, then the perimeter can be determined by multiplying one side length by the total number of sides.
